I am more of a 34 band so the fact that this bra is almost a comfortably snug fit may be noteworthy, but I must admit that I acquired this bra in a "Used" condition from here on Bratabase so I am not entirely certain of the bra's history. I had to sew the decorative rosettes back into place as they seemed to be hanging by a thread, literally. The upper third of the cup is entirely mesh and needlework, but the edge of the mesh gapes slightly and rolls down onto itself when my shoulders are relaxed - I plan to figure out a way to reinforce ... the edge. The top of the gore slightly digs into my sternum, but I will be bending the underwires into a more comfortable and narrower width. The stiff straps are too wide-set for me (a common issue), but altering the wires will also decrease the distance between the straps so they aren't digging into my arms.

UPDATE:
I have sewn the innermost corners of the wire tunnels together to narrow the gore and help mitigate the gaping mesh.

This bra felt exceptionally deep to me, for a 32H. I had trouble filling it out and the tops wrinkled for me. I am fairly even in shape, but this is *very* open on top and probably best for someone with a lot of volume there.

This is a good bra and definitely will be worn regularly, but it's not as great as I had hoped it would be.

Pros:
-Awesome fabric
-Looks gorgeous, under clothes and by itself. Great shape, right amount of lace-fabric ratio, holds me in well.
-Right band size. I LOVE the feeling of a well-tacked gore.
-Pretty comfortable.

Cons:
-Center gore is too wide and isn't comfortable because of it. I will definitely eventually take it in, because as a result of the wide center gore, the fullest part of the cup sits in the wrong place. Once I've done that I think the rest of the bra will work much better for me.
-It doesn't have ... a full band around the bottom, which means that the cups sit a little too low on my and I have to reposition my breasts throughout the day to keep the bra from slipping down. I am very short-waisted in general, and I lose my waist entirely if my bra slips down.
-Cups are too full on top, maybe slightly not full enough on the bottom. There's TONS of extra wrinkling lace. Though admittedly, it fills up when I bend over because my breasts are soft and mobile.

EDIT: 8 months later: with more experience, I think I can say that this bra is too shallow and too tall for me. It may also be slightly big in the cups, but it's very difficult to tell because the shape is so wrong for me.
